What Qualifications And Experience Do I Need To Get Into Investment Banking???

a hell of a lot.

There are various FSA exams you have to take not to mention training in the stock market.

The best thing to do is get a job with a bank or something like that (who will pay forall yuor training) and get experience that way.
You will be getting a salary + commission and bonus' which is a good thing to get untill you gain enough experience and have enough money then you can branch out on your own.

You need money

Knowledge and experience with the many different types of investment vehicles.An MBA would help and a couple of licenses from the NASD are going to be required. Probably the best "quality" who could have is the ability to network.

You need absolutely top-drawer educational credentials. Most top I-banks will hire top graduates of the top 20 colleges. They'll also hire top graduates of the top 10 MBA programs.

If that's not you then you're really fighting an uphill battle.
